Workforce Advocacy

The advocacy efforts of the Dayton Area Logistics Association extend beyond public policy. DALA members identify a skilled workforce as an important challenge facing the industry overall, in all markets. One of the strategies for increasing the applicant pool for jobs in logistics is to fight common misconceptions about the industry. In order to shed light on the variety of available positions, the opportunities for advancement and the high quality of career options provided by the logistics industry, DALA produced a short video highlighting logistics-related businesses in the Dayton region.
